They have got a lot of new teachers and some new subjects. They are not in the same class, so Cathy is curious. Cathy: Hi Mike. How’s your fi rst week at school? Mike: Everything’s fi ne. But my timetable is horrible. Cathy: Why? What’s wrong with it? Mike: Our fi rst lesson is Maths on Monday, Maths on Tuesday, Maths on Wednesday and Maths on Friday. Cathy: And who is your Maths teacher? Mike: Mr Finch. He is really strict and I’m not good at Maths. I’m really scared. Cathy: Oh no! Poor you. Maths on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday. So, what’s your fi rst lesson on Thursday? Mike: Let me see. The fi rst lesson on Thursday is PE. Cathy: Your favourite subject! Is Miss Jones your teacher? Mike: Yes, she is. She is great. She is my form teacher, too. Cathy: Lucky you. I think she’s wonderful. Very pretty and young, too. And who is your History teacher? Mike: Mrs Pitt. She is very nice. But her hair is a bit unusual, don’t you think? Cathy: Well... maybe the colour. What do you think about History? Mike: I’m not sure, but I think it’s pretty interesting. Cathy: Are there any new pupils in your class? Mike: Yes, there are two new pupils. The twins. They are from Australia and their father is a writer. He writes detective stories. Cathy: Wicked! Oh, the bell’s ringing. I must go back to my classroom. Mike: Me too. I don’t want to be late. Cathy: Good luck with Mr Finch! Mike: I think I’ll need it. Cathy: Bye Mike. See you after school.

Mike: I have got a big family. I live with my

mum, my dad, a big sister and a little brother. My brother is a real pain in the neck. He never leaves me alone. We have got a lot of relatives around the world, but my aunt and uncle from Australia are the best. We have also got a pet - a parrot called Lilly. Cathy: My family is not so big, but I am not an only child. I’ve got a big sister. Amy always sings. She isn’t bad at singing at all. We haven’t got a pet because our fl at is not very big. I have got a lot of cuddly animals instead, and all my cuddly animals have got names. Linda: I share my room with my brother. We have got bunk beds. I am on the top bed and he has got the bottom bed.

Reading & Listening p. 30 task 3

My kid brother Ted is a real nuisance. He sings to me all the time. He doesn’t play in his room, but he comes to my room and makes a noise. “Please, tidy the room now,” I tell him, but he doesn’t. He just says: “I’m too small.” In fact, he doesn’t do any chores. I help our mum with the dishes, I take out the chairs, I wash dad’s car.... Ted always takes my things without asking and doesn’t give them back. I still don’t know where my tennis racket is. When I phone my friends he always repeats everything I say. “Luckily we don’t have anything for dinner today.” “Luckily we don’t have anything for homework today,” he says. “I think Jessica doesn’t like me.” “I think Jessica doesn’t like me,” he repeats. “Shut up!” I scream. “Get out!” he screams, too. I don’t understand what’s so funny about repeating what other people say. “He’s too small,” my parents just explain. “He doesn’t understand.” Ted eats ice cream before dinner and then he doesn’t eat his food. Sometimes he hides dad’s umbrella and doesn’t want to say where it is. So, mum and dad sometimes really get angry, but Ted just says: “I’m too small.” Sometimes I would like to be “too small”, especially when Ms Jones tells my dad that I don’t do my homework regularly. So, that’s Ted. He really annoys me, but he is my kid dinosaur and I love him.

Pete: Mike, what would you like to be when you grow up? Mike: I don’t know, maybe a pilot. No, no. That’s dangerous. Pete: A teacher? Mike: No, school is boring and there are too many kids. I know! I’d like to be a computer programmer. Pete: Why? Mike: Isn’t it clear? Then I could play computer games all day long with nobody around to say, “Don’t you think it’s time to stop playing?” Pete: That sounds great! Mike: What about you? Pete: I’d like to be.... Let me see. Not a doctor, it’s yucky and you often work at night. Mike: A journalist maybe? Pete: Defi nitely not. You know I’m bad at writing. I would like to be a detective. Mike: You mean like Inspector J? Pete: Look, it says here that I have all the right qualities to be a detective. I’m patient, I’m brave, I’m hard-working and I’m clever. Mike: OK, Mr Perfect. Let’s solve one mystery! How come you got an F in the History test if you are so clever and hardworking? Pete: Yes, that’s a real mystery that even the best detective in the world couldn’t solve.

The 1st day of winter for ancient Greeks was 21 or 22 December. The Romans began their year fi rst on 1 March, then changed the calendar to 1 January. In France in ancient times a king made Easter the fi rst day of a year. Even today, many people celebrate the 1st day of the year on different dates. The Jewish New Year is between 5 September and 5 October. In Iran, the New Year begins on 21 March. The Chinese living outside China celebrate the old Chinese New Year between 21 January and 19 February. Long ago the only “calendar” people had was the moon, the sun, the stars and the seasons.
